Windstar Cruises’ flagship Wind Surf called at the Port of Leith for the first time on 24 July as part of her Scandinavian Tapestry itinerary.
The 310-guest motor sailing yacht, which has five masts and seven sails, will return to Leith this August. It will also call at the port in July 2014 after sailing around the Caribbean and the Mediterranean.
“We were delighted to welcome Wind Surf to the Port of Leith as the starting destination for her cruise around Scandinavia,” said Fiona Doherty, Leith’s port manager. “Scotland is a world-class destination and we are looking forward to Wind Surf calling at Leith again in the future.”
Forth Ports, which owns the Port of Leith, is set to receive 80 cruise liners and more than 80,000 passengers at Leith, Rosyth and Dundee this year.
